Page 37 of Forever Yours

Prudence nodded and Devlin noticed the quick glance between Prudence and Annabelle. She was thankful that, since this morning, the planning of Gabe and Devlin’s future was off the table.For now.She expected the ceasefire from Annabelle and Prudence would be over once they were back in town, especially if they were picking up on the tension that was ready to snap between her and Gabe.

She looked around at the rest of the group assembled and, except for Sebastian, saw a close group of friends who had known each other for decades. She felt a surge of emotion that she was lucky enough to be included with these wonderful people. She didn’t want anything to jeopardize these friendships that had become as important to her as any familial connection. Gabe’s body left an imprint behind her from moments ago and she tried to shake it off, but she made the fatal mistake of looking out of the sliding door to the backyard where she could see him chopping wood. As he lifted and heaved the blade back down, she was conscious of every rhythmic strike as if he was pounding into her.

I’m going to leave my door open tonight.

She didn’t have time to second-guess herself, she knew this to be an indisputable fact that she wouldn’t deny herself any longer. She just needed to hold on to any thread of sanity until he came to her. She stood, picking up her glass. The conversation around her had come to a lull, everyone else just as tired as her from the long day. “I’m going to turn in. What time are we planning to leave in the morning?”

“I was thinking around noon?” Greyson offered. “Give us one last chance to sleep in, have some brunch then hit the road.”

She looked around the group, at the satisfied Prudence, the mellow Annabelle and the half asleep Sebastian. “I think that sounds perfect. Have a good night.” She cast one last look outside before leaving the room.

Gabe was nervous.I’m a grown man that’s nervous to go to a woman’s bedroom. He stood outside Devlin’s bathroom door and hesitated, his hand hovering over the handle. He couldn’t turn back after this, business and pleasure would be forever intertwined. Whatever he thought—

The door swung open, and Devlin stood in front of him wearing just a shirt. “Are you just going to stand there and keep me waiting?”

Gabe smiled at her forthrightness. Now this was the Devlin he knew. “I was giving myself a pep talk.”

“Really?” Devlin moved aside and gestured him into the room, closing the door behind him. “You didn’t seem like you needed a pep talk earlier tonight. Are you going to leave your jacket on?”

Surprised, Gabe realized he was still wearing his jacket and shoes. Letting out a laugh, he toed off his shoes and threw his jacket over a chair. “I came back inside, and everyone was gone. It felt for a minute like I imagined the whole day and I’d been here by myself, but then I saw all the glasses still on the table and knew I wasn’t alone. I didn’t stop and came right here.”

Devlin padded over to him and ran her hand up his chest, toying with the top button of his flannel shirt. “I’m glad you did. If you can’t tell, I was getting a little impatient.”

They were almost eye to eye. Gabe held her gaze for a moment before lowering his head to capture her lips. He raised his hands to frame her face, running his thumbs over her cheeks as they had the most chaste, tender kiss he’d experienced. Then he ran his hands down her back and realized she wore nothing under her shirt. The silk of her ass, a perfect handful, would forever be a sensory memory of his.

Devlin reached down and pulled her shirt off, tossing it to the floor. She backed up as Gabe removed his clothes and he got his first look at her. His first,I’ve been waiting years to see this, look.I’ve been waiting my whole life. Every memory he had of her was so underwhelming compared to what he saw in front of him now. When she had long hair she’d used it almost like armor, to cover her breasts and hide part of herself from him, but her short hair gave her a vulnerability that he didn’t think she realized she was exuding.

The lust he saw in her eyes when he was naked moved him forward and they tumbled to the bed as their mouths clashed together, ferocious in their need to touch each other everywhere all at once. It reminded him of their first time together and his promise to her earlier tonight that if they repeated it, they’d go slow. He stilled his movements, holding on to her, enjoying her body nestled against his, how they fit just right, every dip and hollow meeting its perfect counterpart.

She nipped his chin and tried to move on top of him, but he took her mouth in a languorous open-mouthed kiss before flipping her to her back and moving downward.

“I told you we’d go so slow you’d beg me for your release.” Gabe’s voice was muffled by her breast, and he flicked a tongue out, teasing her nipple.

“I don’t want it slow,” Devlin growled. “I want you now.”

Gabe smiled at her and continued his descent. “Why do you want it so fast?” He dipped his tongue into her belly button, swirling around as she let out a purr.

“Why slow?” She gasped as he ran light fingers up the inside of her thighs to tease her.

“I asked you first.” The heat in her eyes was almost his undoing, his cock so swollen that he felt like he was going to explode, but when he looked at her, spread open before him, he knew he was going to taste her tonight and that was all he needed to know to continue to take it slow.

He didn’t wait for her answer, preferring to show her why taking it slow had its benefits, and lapping up everything her body wanted to give him. The pleasure he felt when he heard her moan as he first touched her clit almost made him pass out, her fingers scraping on his scalp the only thing keeping him going. He alternated between dipping his tongue into her and circling then sucking her clit until she tensed and trembled, then he eased away. She yelped and bucked her hips upward, almost knocking him off the bed.

“Easy there, Devlin. I promise I’ll give you what you want.”

She scrabbled her hands back to his head, guiding him down. “Don’t stop, Gabe, please.”

“I won’t deny you anything.” And he didn’t. He refused to go fast, wanting to prolong this moment in case this was the only one they had. Finally, he held his tongue over her clit and let her ride his mouth until she came in a shuddering orgasm.

He pulled himself to his knees, holding his body sway over hers, the tip of his cock teasing her entrance, the wetness of her sending shivers over his body. He leaned down and took her mouth in a kiss, then lifted her and helped her to position herself on her knees. Kneeling behind her, he fondled her ass, parting her cheeks and running his cock up and down, searching for her wetness once again.

“I told you, you made me an ass man.” He grabbed each cheek and dipped the tip of his cock into her. “I always thought I was a breast man until you.” He grabbed a condom that she’d lain on the bed and rolled it on, then inched inside her, the still rocking pulse of her orgasm pulling him deeper inside with each thrust.

Every atom of his being was screaming at him to take her hard and fast, to pound into her until his world shattered. He picked up his rhythm until he heard Devlin laugh, her striking eyes watching him over her shoulder. “No going slow for you?”

Gabe halted in mid thrust and bent over Devlin. He was able to take her at a different angle and she gasped at the change. He could hear her starting to pant as the pressure built inside her once again. Leaning her elbows on the bed, she gave him complete access, allowing that vulnerability he knew didn’t come easy to her show. He draped over her to cover her, like he was shielding her, protecting her, and only started to slide back in when she reached behind her, twining the fingers of one of her hands with his.
